this is turning not something short of benghazi-gate. i wish you were at the briefing that took place. it was the most senseless, worthless briefing i ever attended. at this juncture we have four americans killed. one was widely known and highly respected individual. the media knows more about what happened than we do and we want answers. senator demint and i introduced a bill two weeks ago to get to the bottom of this. it was blocked. i will say this is now turned into a very bipartisan concern. it is my understanding today that all members of the foreign relations committee both democrats and republicans are asking the administration for answers. so this is now something that certainly could never be colored as partisan. these are concerned senators and house members who want to see, want to know what's happened and for some reason this administration is not coming forth. i want to say one other thing. secretary clinton, while there have been political difference, no question, one of the things that i think most people have appreciated
